Not sure about Marshall law, but the rest of bang on. All a bit tragic. |

I'll be honest - I did mean 'blot on the landscape', but not in the visual sense - in the emotional sense. I don't live in west London, but every time I go there, it dominates the skyline, even more so locally I would have thought. I just feel that does nobody any good. |

absolutely true re the integrity - if its not to come down, is the council really expected to maintain an empty sad hulk for evermore? |

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cq5g99xy979o Right decision I would say - its stood long enough as a sad blot on the landscape - I don't think its healthy for group mental health to have kept it up for this long, let alone for ever more. I hate to be disagree with some of the families, but can't help but wonder if this a rare time when the people involved aren't actually in the best position to decide whats best. Knock it down and put up a memorial. [Post edited 6 Feb 12:22]

So long GB. I hope this is a temp thing, personally... it seems a shame to go out like this, as I do believe you were meaning to be playful, even if though it really didn't read like that. Dolly hope thoughts to you too - sounds like you're both dealing with a lot. |

Its also not just pensioners living with the consequences of Brexit, so if anyone's getting 'punished' its all of us, including those who voted the other way (thanks guys). |

The 'this govt is sht' campaign is powerful, probably run by some clever people and doing it's job even amongst decent folk. |

I'm no wordsmith, but a point of order: "I do worry" and "looking unlikely" are very gentle, highly qualifying phrases. you brute. |

Did anyone catch the later slot on LBC where an American trump supporter was talking about having 'no problem with dwarfs - just unqualified dwarfs'?! I thought I'd temporarily crossed into a parallel universe governed by Chris Morris. |

Sorry to hear you're suffering mr. Just a random thought really, but web work is very flexible and even if you don't have the skills now, you can pick them up, especially if you have sleepless nights to fill to train yourself. Just a thought - apologies if its wide of the mark. |

I get your pain and anger mr, I really do. Trouble is, the voting public won't yet for something more radical. And not just here either - even more so in other, bigger and more polluting countries too. One thing though: I'd caution against joining the growing throng of 'this govt is sh1t'. It's had very little time to sort out a sh1t-ton of problems. There's a clear move in the right of this country to set the tone of debate on this and they're doing it very well - always remember the actual alternative, not the mythical left wing one that no one will (yet) vote for. |

My only thought is the fines seem a bit steep, especially if you're taking more than one kid out. |

I think Chinese students are keeping it alive at Stepney green where I play, although the pool tables in there are always busy too. |
